CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN OHIO.

Woodstock, o., Sept. 21, 1SS7.-LTo
the Editor of The UNIvERsALIsT.]- Rev.
e. F. Pember, under date of September
z, sends us a characteristic letter from
which we make the following extracts:
The summer of '87, with it's purely or
thodox (?) tendencies, has at last closed
its cremation business, and some of us
slight weights can venture out when the
sun shines. have had my vacation on
Hewett Avenue, and in the capacity of
clerical tramp through Southern Ohio.
How some of the fellows at the noun
tains and seashore would envy me If
they only knew how comfortable such a
vacation is after all.
81 have kept up the battle all along
the line, with large congregations at
every service. Last Sunday, as little
diversion, held basket meeting on the
Lebanon Fair grounds. Attendance at
the morning service was estimated at
eight hundred, and at the afternoon, at
over twelve hundred. And then, as l
had only preached UniveIsalism for two
hours, an hour at each service, went to
Mason and preached in the evening. Peo-
pie were present at the basket meeting
from Spring boro, Carlisle, Red Lion,
Utica, Ridgeville, Waynesville, and Ma
son. Everybody was there, and gave
them Universalism in allopathic Doses"
The same letter which contained the
above, also conveyed the intelligence of
Br. Pember's call to and acceptance of,
the pastorate of our church at Titusville,
already alluded to in The UNIvERsALIsT.
We had anticipated something Of the
kind, and very much regret that it should
be so, for the sake of the cause in South
ern Ohio. Br. Pember's labors have
heen very fruitful since he came to this
State; and the circuit which he has had
charge of since his resignation OF the ON
cmnsti parish, has enjoyed much pros
perity. But few ministers cave State
with larger circle OF friends, whose pray
ers for his continued success will follow
hum to his new parish.
Ohio Associations.
Central Association held its annual
meeting at Jersey, September Gil. The
ministers present were Rev. Messrs. Tuck
er, Crazy and Garfield; Brs. Albert K.
BEEN and L. B. T. Fisher, hcentistes,
were also in attendance. Sermons were
delivered by Brs. Tucker, Fisher. Crazy
and Garfield. The meeting is reported
to us as having been pleasant and profit
able. Our Jersey friends were somewhat
disappointed in not having their new
The Universalist. [volume] (Chicago [Ill.]) 1884-1897, 1887-10-01

over-anxious to come. As / have often
said, whoever has good health, and Is do
ing well in the East, had better, by all
means, remain there. The restless desire
for change, will not make it pleasant
nor profitable anywhere. Many time
I have felt that could not stay longer,
with my friends all back in the dear old
home-places, although some have come,
and others are coming soon. A great
stampede is expected from the East this
fall and winter, and it may seem more
home-like soon. The country is improv-
ing rapidly and will soon be full to over
flowing. Last Sunday preaehed the
First Sermon in the New Town of Florida,
about seven miles from here, and expect
to preach there again next Sunday. So
far, my work and that of Br. Roripaugh,
has been missionary work, and entirely
gratuitous. have preached twice in
San Jacinto, on the same terms. Good
will doubtless come of it, by and by, but it
does not bring bread for the present.
The great craze is for land, water and
climate, and the real estate agents are
too numerous to count. This will not be
encouraging to preachers who want to
come, but it is the solid truth. A rose
colored lure was presented to me before
1 came, but the color soon faded. At one
or two points our friends are wealthy, and
can do what they please, but know of
no others. It is best to know the truth,
and then come if you must. Br. Throop
writes me that dozen or 30 want to
come. Well, come, it you must for
health, or worldly gain, or pleasure, but
do not expect too good a church field at
present. j. J. AUSTIN.

BALLOU'S TREATISE ON ATONE
MENT."

MENT."
This work is now republished in a
handsome edition by the Publishing
House. 1t contains valuable introduce
ton by Rev. A. A. Miner. d. D., in which
the history and doctrine of the work are
reviewed with conspicuous ability. We
give some of the press comments:
although Hosea Ballou died thirty
years ago, his influence is still felt in Bos.
ton, and his memory is affectionately cher
lshed. His essay on Atonement is hand
book among Universalists. "-NeU Jeru-
salem Magazine.
ut is written in plain, simple style,
while the subject upon which it treats is
presented with great force and ability.
No Universalist should be without it.
Hosea Ballou, probably did more to
spread Universalism than any man of
modern timee."-ReU. IT. G. Burruss, in
Universdlist Herald.
"As one of the first direct assaults
upon the doctrine of retribution as held
by the Calvinists, the book is worth pre-
serving on the shelves Of booksellers, as
well as on the shelves of libraries. 1t is
the work of strong mind and loving
heart struggling with the dark problems
of the dark and terrible theology of the
day. How he bowed himself to the work,
and how at last he opened his way from
the dark prison-house to the cheerful light
of the universal heaven, is here most
clearly stated. The logic is clear, strong,
brief. There is no superAuous words"

Friday Evening Platform Meeting.
Friday evening was devoted to plat
form meeting, Revs. Messrs. Gorton,
Crum and Cantwell, speaking in the
order named, on ~ the Principles of
Universalism, ~ the Methods of Uni
versalism, and ~ the Opportunities of
Universalism. The congregation gave
earnest attention, and were evidently
interested in the remarks of the several
speakers. Mr.. Gorton's review of the
doctrines of Universalism was compre-
hensive, and his address reproduced ex-
actly as spoken, would make an excel
lent tract. Perhaps it will appear here
after in that form.

Resolued, ~ That these resolutions be
spread upon the records of our Convention,

RESOLVED, (8) That this Convention extend
its hearty thanks to our retiring brother
and President, the Hon. j. D. Plat, for the
| faithful, efficient and Christian manner in
which he has presided over this body for the

for the last ten years. Receipts of the
year from all sources, 1854 ~. Balance

Referred to an Auditing Committee,

hand for all expenditures.
Time of Next Session.
Rev. Mr.. Thayer advocated in forci-
BILE speech changing the time of meet
ing Of the Convention to the earlier
part of the week, and not to include
Sunday. 1t was finally agreed that
when the Convention adjourn, it ad-
journ to the fourth Wednesday in Sep
TENDER, the session to begin on Wednes-
day morning and close on Thursday in
order to permit ministers to return to
their several parishes for Sunday labor.
A Vote of Thanks to Usage
for the hospitable entertainment of the
delegates and visitors was adopted by
rising and evidently very hearty vote.
Rev. Mr.. Crum,
in some closing words spoke hopefully
of the outlook in the State, and ex-
pressed the conviction that the coming
year would be one of prosperity for our
cause. He also alluded to the plan.
now under consideration by the Execu-
tive Committee, of districting the State,
and while the churches are without a
superintendent, placing under charge
of each pastor certain number of
churches to whom he will give pastoral
attention and report the result of his
work to the State Convention.
The Editor of The Universalist
also occupied brief space of time in
calling attention to the duty of the
churches in reporting their doings in
that paper. He wished to secure a
correspondent in every church in the
State, who will furnish items of de-
nominational interest. Iowa was in
vited to use the columns of THE UNI
vERsALIsT to record all movements of
interest among the parishes.
The Report of the Auditing Committee.
alluded to above, was the last item of
business transacted. At12 o'clock the
final adjournment took place, the Con-
vention 70 meet on the morning of the
fourth Wednesday in September, 1888,
the place of meeting being left to the
decision of the Executive Committee.
A bountiful parting dinner was served
in the vestry, and after brief social
visit, many of the delegates and visitors
left Usage on the afternoon trains.
